B52 Crash Site

I was feeling really sick, and I had canceled all my classes that day. But it was such a nice sunny day after weeks of cold, wet weather, so Jack took me out for a ride late in the afternoon to see the B52 crash site. It was less than 10 minutes drive from our place. Thought it would do me some good to get some fresh air, as my room had this sick atmosphere already.

The US fighter plane (bomber) was fired down by the Vietnamese army way back in the 1970's. According to Jack, the army used women to target the planes as they are better shooters than men - and I agree. Haha. If given the chance, we really do shoot better - we're calm, and fire straight at the target. But women don't usually care for guns, anyway. :)

He got some ribs for snack. Excuse for some needed protein.
